Do you find your joints click more often than most people's joints? And when they do click, do you find it extremely painful?

    Hi Princess yes when you have Arthritis your joints do click, I have OA of the hips and knee's and mine click and also sometime they make a clunk sound, you did not say what Arthritis you have but it is part of Arthritis,I hope this answers your question, lots of luck. Wendylou. :D

    Definitely.
    I have a recliner and I put my feet up. If I move my legs go to get up. It's like clunk click. OH looks up surprised.

    I also get the feeling that my knee caps move sideways off their sockets. Quite painful
    Yes, I'd say they are quite tuneful and painful at the same time.

    I think I need a new head sometimes. The meds are really messing my memory/little grey cells :roll:
